MMwA: The Arduino Programming

Learn How to Code your DIY MIDI Controllers!

ABOUT THE COURSE​

The "Making Music with Arduino: The Arduino Programming" is a full Arduino programming course dedicated to musicians. If you only want to build MIDI controllers without learning how to code, you can watch only the MMwA, but if you want to get deeper, create your codes, understand my and other people's code, that's the course for you!

In this course, you'll learn the Arduino language (C based), and about electronics. This way, you'll be able to think about any project that comes to your mind and realize it, not depending on other people's code, circuits, etc.

So, if you want to take your creativity to the next level, creating solutions that look like magic to other people, you'll love the MMwA: The Arduino Programming!
